Just got a gorgeous Freckled Monitor for pennies on the dollar at a reptile specialty store that bought some hoping for a quick turnaround on a rare reptile, but "sat" on it for quite a while... I come in, and got it for 1/3 sticker price!
Healthy bugger. Currently basking under the heatlamp and trying to size up his surroundings and just what exactly that furry feline thing is that keeps staring at him (my Bengal cat).
Looking forward to years of enjoyment out of the lizard. Although I'm experienced with monitors (had 4 different species back in the mid 1990's), monitor husbandry has VASTLY improved since, especially with the relative flooding of australian species in the captive-born market. I'll have pictures in the next week or so. Don't wanna stress the newcomer with a flashing light so soon after getting in his new home.
